When one has been suffering the agoniss

if a new lease of life had been granted.
Such have been the feelings of thousands

less remedies, have used Ath!Ophoros and

or weeks at a time. The most of my
trouble was in nv hands and arms. The
pain was usually accompanied with con-
siderable swelling of my hands. During
these years | have used many kinds Of
remedies with only temporary relief. Being
in the newspaper business ! had come in
contact with various medicines that were
advertised in our columns, but really never
had much faith in patent medicines. \
little over three years ago my attention was
called to AthiOphoros. | noticed from
time to time the strong endorsement of

Through this means concluded TO try the
medicine for my own case. Twas relieved
and cured in a remarkably short time"

slight attack, but few doses OF AthlOpho-

often effectively in this direction. They
certainly ought to do so.
But we need more of this influence and

Our citizens also look II the Meth0dists

churches to unite their efforts 10 establish a

South end of the city. The St
Paul and Central hives are swarming
already: accommodations in both houses
are insufficient. and. not infrequently, many
people who wish to attend the services go
away because there are neither seats nor
room. This ought not so TO be- There are
scores of good, earnest, devout men and
women, in both these churches. who could
be spared from them. who could organize
and prosecute work in the South end and
build up a strong and most useful South
